[@investquest4551]

Good to hear about how to lead a company into the ground! Any more great insights from all your hard work Mary? Bankruptcy not far off now

[@jjtt_2004]

If the former CEO of GM, Dan Akerson didn't retire and continue be CEO, today GM will not looked like this.

[@vergil5603]

They’re gonna learn where they’ve done wrong, GM far from gone

[@IdLikeToSpeakToMyLawyer]

Yeah, we see where that's gotten us now.

[@conn3r81]

GM : lets woman have CEO and CFO positions Also GM: laid off 14k factory workers and moves to mexico

[@adwaitab.3622]

Ya sure. Blame it on women

[@hydrohasspoken6227]

Not her fault. It is the fault of the men under her command.

[@mansidasgupta7104]

Madam. Please. Start. Your. Own. Industry. For. Girls.

[@philipmail499]

yea and she is destroying gm right now. 15000 u.s layoffs. 5 closed us plants

[@user-iy3ct1ci3o]

Dear Ms. Barra, instead of praising the company's activities should urgently address the worst customer service and service garages scammers that cause great damage, very dangerous to buy a vehicle from GM.

[@DR-uj2dd]

She needs to go. I sold all of my stock. Shes a complete liar. GM is moving it all to Mexico.

[@investquest4551]

Good move

[@maryannfrank2866]

Great video. Inspiring. Thank you😉

[@investquest4551]

Inspiring on how to go bankrupt?

[@iwaited90daystochangemynam55]

The first female CEO becomes the worst female CEO in automobile industry !! Congrats for selling 26EVs !!

[@xcmskim4]

Mary Barra has no idea what she's doing. Closing American factories, moving production to China and Mexico, not focusing on quality and skimping R&D. All this while making $22M salary is beyond absurd.

[@--4789]

Wow Excellent

[@TURBOINTEGRATYPER]

Let’s all help out Mary Barra and buy a Toyota.

[@unfazedgeorge]

Lmao no. I’d rather walk. I’ll stick with my Tesla.

[@TURBOINTEGRATYPER]

@@unfazedgeorge hahaha Tesla fanboy

[@user-iy3ct1ci3o]

To CEO of General Motors In attention to Mrs. Mary Barra Dear Mrs. Barra, I am very sorry to tell you, with all respect, that I find out as a big part of your staff are cheating and lying during their work, as a normal standard. On top of that the Customer Service doesn’t care at all about the customers. This behaivior make me to decide to present this message to the public every day, until I will receive an appropriate answer from a serious person from GM company. The conclusion is that IS VERY DANGEROUS TO BUY A NEW CAR FROM YOUR COMPANY!!!!!!!! Daniel Alon

[@andybub45]

Posting this like a bot wont do anything

Toyota CEO makes 100 thousand a year she makes 23 millions a year and GM has not paid back it's bailout loan yet hardly any of it today the cost of a GM pickup equals the price of a house go figure

[@MA-id1hr]

A total disaster. The first and the last.

[@mdkhairuzzaman8776]

Very good women Mary barra

[@hmb8801]

"It wan't I can't do this because I don't see other women " tell this to feminists.

[@bradleymosman8325]

Three cheers for women's empowerment! A woman just laid off a hundreds of women from their jobs. But never mind. They'll just stay home and hope he doesn't lose his job, too.

[@EricK-zz2fe]

Bradley Mosman It’s a business not a charity.

[@dzerres]

@@EricK-zz2fe Given her the CEO position was very charitable.

[@scottanderson4175]

What could this woman do that would make her worth $24 million a year and how does that affect car prices 😐

[@drknapp10]

She is not just a great CEO, but a true visionary. She is bringing us into the future of AV and electric. So buckle up everyone, she is taking us for a ride!

[@TURBOINTEGRATYPER]

Are you drunk.? She's a disgrace to the entire auto industry and should be fired immediately

[@macneoh7418]

Nobody wants that garbage

[@investquest4551]

Buckle up for bankruptcy

[@vishnusatheesh8885]

That's GM lost most of it's iconic company's

[@pamplanil]

GM owes 14,000,000,000 dollars of tax payer money to be paid back to the government as part of the restructuring / bailout from 2008

[@wandameadows5736]

No wonder Chevys went to crap.

[@user-fb3qc8nm6h]

[@user-xv3gr3rc9w]

Unbelievable radiance in a compilation of murderous articulation ... In my view, she should not be in this position. It is unarguable that he too is not a small responsibility .... But I think she has the potential ... to run for president of America ... And if they choose her ... I'm sure the voters will not be sorry .

[@dzerres]

Another Russian hit job. Last time it was a Hollywood reality star and now this woman? Fortunately this time it's not going to work.

[@johnprendergast1338]

She seems to be striving to be a movie star....Not so good at being a leader or visionary for GM...she's managing poorly at best ...concerned ...

[@investquest4551]

Good call
